About this item:

Tender Is the Flesh (Paperback) is an international bestseller. The story follows Marcos, who works at a processing plant where humans are slaughtered, though they are no longer referred to as such. Due to an infectious virus that has made animal meat poisonous, governments have initiated a 'Transition' where eating human meat is legal. Marcos attempts to remain detached, focusing on numbers and processing. He receives a live specimen and gradually begins to treat her like a human, leading to internal conflict and reflection on loss and potential salvation.
